Horton's empathizer
I walk down the street
and all I see are the empty dreams
that were once held in the hands of all who lived there
The dogs don't bark
the cats don't meow
and the cars go by without a sound
it feels like I'm
the only one around
Life is a gift
we need to care for it
like a helpless little baby
There is only one You
and there is only one Me
there is only us,
and that is all there will ever be
I am a citizen, a dreamer, a poet
but like our friend Horton,
who knows it best
"A person's a person. No matter how small."
You have your chance to make a change
and who knows how it starts?
You need to be the once to open the cage...
